Meet Our Team
Maya
Hi, I’m Maya 👋 I studied religion pedagogy at Vytautas Magnus University, where I learned about different approaches to emotional and psychological support.
My interest in anxiety and emotional wellbeing also comes from personal experience, which showed me that knowledge alone isn’t always enough.
That’s how Ease Your Anxiety was created — a space where we share practical ways to manage anxiety, overthinking, and difficult days.
I’m also the author of Happy: Emotional Colouring, a book designed to help you slow down and relax through simple creativity. 🎨
Hema
My name is Žiedūnė Hema Kusk. Currently, I am the director of an architectural design company, and I have a great passion for the arts, including painting, photography, poetry, and writing short essays.
I am also keenly interested in art therapy. My sister has disabilities, which inspired me to research ways to help her and others with similar challenges. I discovered that art and art therapy can significantly aid in managing complex disabilities.
In 2014, I opened an art studio in Lithuania called “Art Room,” 🎨🖌️ which also functioned as an art gallery to help disabled individuals sell their artwork. It collaborated with various organizations on social integration projects. I also spoke on radio and was featured in “Kaunas Day newspaper.”
Later, I worked at Kaunas Technology University with international students, helping them use art for stress relief. After moving to the UK in 2017, I joined the Peterborough Society of Arts and participated in exhibitions.
Now, as a mother, I’ve reduced my activities but continue to create through writing and painting.💖
Dovilė
Hi, I’m Dovilė — one of the faces behind Ease Your Anxiety. From a young age, I felt a strong empathy for others, which led me to study psychology and mental health support. 💛✨
My goal is to help people navigate tough emotions and challenges with practical, kind advice. Here at Ease Your Anxiety, I share what I’ve learned to empower you on your mental health journey. 🌱💪
I hope this space feels safe and supportive for everyone looking for understanding and encouragement. 🤗💫
